===Four-Point Circles===
;Ballintain Defense: A basic and easy to set up defense, that however lacks much internal support.{{ref|b|rith|c|1}} This defense features two Lines of Forbiddance, each connecting two adjacent bind points. There are also two circular Lines of Warding at two of the bindpoints opposite of each other. Finally there is a defensive chalkling bound to one of the remaining bindpoints. A popular defense based on the four-point circle, it is ideal for more offensive Rithmatists.{{ref|name=NAME|Ballintain Defense Illustration}}

===Six-Point Circles===
The six-point circle has bindpoints based on a regular hexagon whose vertices are equidistant around the circle's circumference. While it is difficult to determine where the bindpoints are without actually seeing the hexagon, Rithmatists are taught how to intuit their positions. Six-point circles have a greater inherent verstatility and defensibility that two- and four-point circles lack.{{ref|name=NAME|Six-point Circle Illustration}}
;Eskridge Defense:
;Matson Defense: A defense that relies heavily on defensive chalklings.{{ref|b|rith|c|9}}
 
===Nine-Point Circles===
;Easton Defense: A defense that is suited for multiple opponents. It has circular Lines of Warding at each of its bindpoints and and Lines of Forbiddance that form a nine-sided figure with three lines missing which act as support for the mine circle. Drawbacks to the defense are the difficulty of nine-point circles and the restriction created by the Lines of Forbiddance. There are a number of variations on this defense, such as adding defensive chalklings to the outer circles.{{ref|name=NAME|Basic Easton Defense Illustration}}

;Hill Defense: A defense that uses Lines of Forbidding, though it can be modified to work without them.{{ref|b|rith|c|9}}
